• Amphion — A legendary character in Greek mythology, son of Zeus and Antiope, and twin brother of Zethus. Gifted by the god Hermes with a magical lyre whose chords could move stones, Amphion rebuilt and fortified the walls of the city of Thebes, causing the rocks to move and stack themselves solely by the power of his divine music. He married Niobe and died of grief or committed suicide after their children were slain by Apollo and Artemis.
• Argonautic — Belonging or relating to the Argonauts or to their legendary expedition on the ship Argo, led by Jason to retrieve the Golden Fleece. In a literary and structural sense, the term describes epic writings, mythological poems (such as the epic 'Argonautica' by Apollonius of Rhodes), or daring maritime voyages marked by an adventurous spirit and structural heroism.
